I have 7 different versions of "Pearly Shells" on vintage vinyl and only one has a picking part and it is done as the intro of the song on what sounds like a lap steel guitar.

The way I pick it is...(I'm to lazy to tab out all 4 strings when you only need the string/fret (g4=g string 4th fret)
The sheet music notation shows the g4 as a LowG but it sounds just fine as high g too.

I took this from the Jumpin Jim's "Gone Hawaiian" sheet music book and tabbed this using the notes from the G major scale "#" as that is the key the song is in the book.
Hope this is what you are looking for.
